Mating history shapes Wolbachia‐induced cytoplasmic incompatibility and female fitness in an insect pest

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Mating order and remating of females by males with different endosymbiont associations strongly shape Wolbachia‐induced cytoplasmic incompatibility, female fitness and offspring sex ratio. An incompatible first mating was weakly affected if followed by a compatible mating and vice versa, indicating strong first‐male sperm precedence with consequences ...

Inheritance and fitness costs of field‐evolved resistance to Gpp34/Tpp35Ab1 corn by western corn rootworm, Diabrotica virgifera virgifera (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae)

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Field‐evolved resistance to Gpp34/Tpp35Ab1 corn in two western corn rootworm strains was inherited in a non‐recessive manner and was associated with fitness costs. Abstract BACKGROUND The western corn rootworm, Diabrotica virgifera virgifera LeConte, is among the most serious pests of corn in the United States, and an invasive pest in parts of Europe ...

Do spatially targeted weed management strategies increase risk of herbicide resistance evolution?

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Spray‐buffers reduce the effect of detection inaccuracies in spot spraying. We found a trade‐off between short‐term weed population control efficacy and long‐term prevention of herbicide resistance evolution. Abstract Background Spatially targeted spraying is an alternative to broadcast herbicide application that reduces herbicide use by restricting ...

Biomarkers of Pre‐COPD Lung Function Trajectories in Middle Age: A Prospective Study From 1st to 6th Decade

Respirology, EarlyView.
Identifying impaired lifetime lung function trajectories is key to identifying the preclinical phase of COPD (Pre‐COPD) or prognosis of COPD. We have identified that some circulating established COPD biomarkers differ across ‘pre‐COPD’ lung function trajectories, suggesting that some COPD‐specific pathobiological processes, including inflammation, are ...

A New Social Life Cycle Assessment Framework: An AI‐Driven Optimization Approach and Application

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Social life cycle assessment (SLCA) has increasingly been acknowledged as a tool for assessing the societal impacts of services and products. However, the fragmented nature of current approaches makes it difficult to compare this concept and its practical applications.
